Switch up your shades - Power Poppy Challenge - Card 2

My second card for the Power & Spark Challenge at Power Poppy this month is Hollyberries:



Again I have used the following Tim Holtz Distress Markers: Festive Berries, Pine Needles, Peeled Paint, Gathered Twig, Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass.
The Merry Christmas stamp is part of the Poinsettia clear stamp set.
The kraft card is from Envelope Solutions and the red tag and green ribbon is from my stash (purchased long ago!)

Thanks for looking!

Switch up your shades - Power Poppy Challenge - Card 1

The Power & Spark Challenge at Power Poppy this month is encouraging us to use a medium that we don't usually use. I have nearly the full set of the Tim Holtz Distress Markers, so I decided to give them a try with some of the Christmas stamps.
Here is a close up of my first card:


For the Glittering Glass Santa stamp, I used Festive Berries, Pine Needles, Peeled Paint, Mowed Lawn, Crushed Olive, Gathered Twigs, Black Soot, Salty Ocean and Tumbled Glass.
The Merry Christmas stamp is part of the Poinsettia clear stamp set.
The kraft card is from Envelope Solutions and the green tag and red ribbon I found in my stash (purchased long ago!)

Colouring with the Distress Markers was quite a change from Copics - as I have already a bunch of images printed and cut on watercolour paper I will definitely continue to use this different medium.
So "THANKS" to Allison for suggesting this challenge.
Thanks for looking!
